The board of the Telecel Ghana Music Award (TGMA) clarified why King Paluta’s popular song, Makoma, was excluded from nomination in several categories at the upcoming awards.
In a statement released on April 3, 2025, the Board announced that contrary to public speculation, the decision to exclude Makoma, one of the biggest hits of the year, from certain categories was due to the TGMA rule that bars artists from having more than one song in a category other than the collaboration categories.
